Encanto Lodge features a unique location where you can find all in one: Jungle, river and beach! Beside a trail in the jungle, our guests can take our kayaks and canoes to reconnect with nature and discover the local wildlife on the river, lagoon and a pristine beach. Encanto Lodge is secluded from the center of Drake Bay and consists of two detached, private Cabañas nestled between garden, jungle and river. The rooms are decorated with wall paintings depicting the local wildlife and with natural materials as white cane or pumpkin tree fruit. Our guests can relax in the hammocks surrounded by nature or choose from a variety of tours that allow them to dive even more into nature and look for special wildlife of interest, e.g. our special Encanto night tour where you can look for the shiny eyes of the crocodiles, a trip to the world famous Corcovado National Park or Diving at Caño Island. Both our cabañas are equipped with a kitchenette. We will also gladly prepare meals for guests that do not wish to cook by themselves. Encanto Lodge offers the free service to pick you up from Drake Bay airport or the boat station and free parking for guests arriving by car (recommended).
